So we found out we're having twins yesterday...now reality is setting in. Don't get me wrong, I'm super excited, but super scared at the same time! My BP was up last Tuesday at my first prenatal appointment, and I've been having headaches the last few days that I'm assuming has something to do with the BP being up too. I think I'm more scared of the pregnancy & delivery! Just hoping that I won't have to be put on bedrest during the pregnancy- I have a 9 yr old and a 15m old that are not going to allow bedrest lol!
Before I was content- we'd kept most of the things from Karter (swing, cradle, baby seat, tub, etc) because we knew we wanted another baby. Now we have to go out and buy seconds of everything. I want to do that NOW, but don't dare until we have our gender ultrasound! I wish there were some things I could start picking up now that I wouldn't have to worry about later, but everything is pretty color coded these days!
We have two bedrooms upstairs, and two down. Right now, Karter and our bedroom is upstairs, and our daughter Kays bedroom is downstairs and the 4th is being used as a playroom. Now I'm contemplating moving Kay upstairs, us moving down to the playroom, and the babies on the way moving into Kays room. That means renovations, painting, etc., on three bedrooms...and I don't know where to start on any of it!!

 | Comment from Eluria88 » Posted Feb. 13, 2014 10:27am I am a twin! My mom said we HATED being apart for the first few months, so we shared a crib, we refused to lay separately. She also delivered vaginally and recovered faster with us than with her singleton. We were also 7 weeks early and didnt leave the hospital for 5 weeks since we weighed only 3lbs, and it gave her time to get ready at home, but she said it sucked having to go to the hospital everyday to visit us, she also couldn't breastfeed but they didn't really push for it in the 80s. You still have a lot of time, dont stress it! Babies wont care if you paint when they're 6 months old either :) We aren't findinf out our gender and I have all our furniture and the carseat bought already! We just got a black seat and im going to add pink lace, or blue things to it when we have the baby, we did white furniture and our walls were already a light green, since green/purple is our girl and green/grey is our boy theme. You can do a lot!! :) |
